The fight for the emergency exit seats
On most airlines, the emergency exit row seats often offer plenty of extra room either on the sides, legroom or both. I believe airlines should set another restriction to passengers who want to sit there. Passengers who are taller than 6' 1 should get priority to those seats. All the gate agents has to do is pull out some measurement device, either a tape measure or some kind of fixed markings on the Jetway door. It really pisses me off when I see passengers sitting in those seats who are shorter than 6 feet, so much I just want to beat them. They don't deserve those seats. So find ways to annoy them when you sit either in front of or behind them. Consult the last post about annoying passengers in subtle ways part 1.
How to piss off passengers in a subtle way part 1
When I fly, I normally don't need to piss off other passengers unless I got something I didn't want such as a seat assignment in the middle. So here are ways to piss off some passengers in such a way, they think its an accident.
#1 You have a middle seat, but you want that window, when the window passenger arrives, mention to them you are in their way or its too busy in the cabin to move around, ask them if you could just move over to that seat to make an easy seating process. Normally they will almost always say no.
#2 If number 1 didn't work out, its time to be annoying. I use my personal height and size to my advantage. Find out if you have anything that can be used to your advantage. I'm 6' 5 and I really hate those middle seats. I try to spread out continually hitting the other passengers legs and invade their personal space, just to annoy them. I may make the comment, "I hate being tall, but what can you do? " to hide my intentional annoyance.
#3 Those people who recline the seats are very annoying for tall passengers like me. When they try to recline the seat, my legs act like natural anti recliners, the harder they recline, the harder I react. Works every time :)
#4 Last for now, make all kinds of bodily sounds to annoy some people. You need to stand up for yourself and don't quit on things that piss you off. You will never be a success if you let those other people walk all over you. Who cares what those other passengers think of you, fight for yourself and when you do it it subtle ways, magical things can happen.

Electrical devices on aircraft
Sure some devices may cause severe interference but the truth is most of them don't. Ipods for example, I have had mine on several times on an airline and look, nothing happened during takeoff or landing. You just need to work your way around it when the flight attendants come around doing their checks. Only wear one ear piece facing the windows so they can't see that. Allow the cord to fall on the side of the body that faces the window, and have the ipod inside a pocket or hide it under blankets or a jacket. Works every time for me.
As for cell phone usage, like most people I actually agree they need to be off all the time while in the airplane.

A.net Code talk
When reading the forums some can't help but wonder WTF are they talking about. Mysterious letters and numbers posted, some come in two's, three's and even four's, US, BNA, just to name a few. You would think those retards could spell out the entire meaning to avoid confusion to new people. But no, they have to talk in airline code (to feel special) and to show off. Take this as a hint and do it right retards.

Southwest Airline Supporters
Are the worst, they are blinded by the fact that the airline is destroying the airline industry. They use the military tactic of moving into the "enemy's base" slowly killing out competition until the enemy suffocates to death. Sure this airline may save you lots of money on tickets, but be forewarned soon enough, those prices will increase because other airlines have already suffocated decreasing competition. Do the entire industry a favor and avoid flying on SWA and don't support them at all.

Embry Riddle
A friend of mine graduated from Riddle last year and he told me how the school especially the flight training is crashing into the ground. There are problems that need to be fixed but are being ignored. Students are now charged for the dry rate, airplane plus fuel, plus instructor, very ridiculous. The school is a joke anyways especially this day in age with less people wanting to become a pilot. No social life, expensive school, no girls, doesn't sound like a real promising place.

About airliners.net
The website is dedicated to aviation photos and aviation enthusiast discussions. Not a bad place except for a few things. I'll only talk about one of them today and that is the whole photo submission process. After carefully tweaking the picture to meet reasonable standards and uploading them, the photos are then screened. The screeners say they are only looking for good quality pictures but what a lot of people don't know is that it comes with strings attached. All the screeners are a joke, they play games, they have favorites, preventing new people from submitting photos and so on. I attempted to upload a few photos of my own, of course my first ones were rejected, I thought ok, i'll try again with some other pictures buy trying to correct any mistakes. Finally after getting them perfect and uploading them, they are rejected again. The reject notice says they lack motif, WTF. I'm really pissed off because someone else had their photo accepted and it was no doubt the same subject type which was in my photo, they almost looked identical but they weren't. Each subject was taken in a different type of aircraft.
Also another bad experience, another one of my pictures was rejected because it "cut off a portion of the airplane". Well I say BS to that, when I see plenty of other photos with small parts of the airplane cut off from the picture. How the F. did they get them accepted? I can go on forever about stupid picture stories but I'm tired.
